Tib seemed very sweet, and her staff were friendly and helpful. The facilities are clean, and the neighborhood has a convenience store and grocery store, as well as decent street food, within walking distance. It is a bit of a walk to get to the skytrain station, which doesn't have as much around it compared to other stations closer to the city center, although there's one very good cafe/bakery that Tib recommended. The building has no elevator. (The staff carried my suitcase up; I carried it down.) I suggest getting a room on a higher floor. I was put on the second floor, where the view was of garbage in the empty lot next door. The studio didn't feel very "bright," as advertised, as there wasn't much natural light from the one mid-size window. I found it a little depressing. The wallpaper in the room didn't match the wallpaper in the pic, so maybe I was shown to the incorrect room, but I'm guessing all the units in this building are pretty similar. I imagine that on a higher floor the view would be much nicer, and the rooms perhaps brighter. Maybe I would have had a much better impression. The sound insulation is poor in this building, with thin walls between the rooms, and noise from the floor above. There isn't much street noise, but you hear it when there is. It's probably best to message the host ahead of time to request a unit on the highest floor, and let her point you to one of those units—and when you're there, have the staff carry your luggage up and down. Note: The toilet is in the shower room—not uncommon in Thailand, but in this case, in a rather cramped space.

Some people will find staying in this neighborhood to be a charmingly local experience. To me it felt a bit drab and inconvenient. I felt like I was in the middle of nowhere. Then again, the rooms are inexpensive and I suppose a good deal in that regard.
